While the Claddagh design usually appears on rings it is now used in all types of jewelry - these traditional Claddagh-style earrings incorporate emerald green Malachite to accent the clasped heart.
Malachite is said to bring harmony, knowledge, and patience. It was used in the Middle Ages as a children's talisman to ward off danger and illness and was often attached to infant's cradles. Malachite is the anniversary gemstone for the 13th year of marriage.
